9:51 pm - funny story. really happened to me
when i was in 2nd grade we lived in salt lake city. we were in this bungalo on this shitty street. there were a couple of young girls my age that hated me but only when they were together. alone i was able to take this girls pet hamster off of her hands.

story with the hamster was i lost it in the house once. my mom thought it was gone forever and threw out the metal wire cage. we end up finding it and so she just turns a plastic laundry basket over for its new cage

well it chewed through a few of the wickers and constantly escaped. all the time.

a few weeks later we were selling the house. and we still didnt find it.

sold it to some old lady with diabetes

the story was that the lady was takin a shit one day when she saw a slimey ratlike thing crawl up from the bathtub drain. she was so shocked she had a diabetic stroke and died

the end

11:26 pm - Half of my good memories from Hawaii
I remember tonight some days when I was age 3. My mother was in the army doing her active duty stuff and so I spent a lot of time at babysitters. This family was a catholic hispanic family and they were known as the "Pause"s becuase their last name was Pause. I remember Senior Junior as resembling Sadaam Hussein for some reason, but I think that mostly has to do with a preview on TV i watched at their house for the original Hot Shots movie. Anyways I remember their son, Junior, would have a horrible trick on me of taunting me with soda, filling a swirly straw with some soda and have a sucking contest on the straw for the soda. This is where he proceeded to spit into the straw.
I also remember the day he taught me how to flip people off. I learned what it actually meant a few days later, the hard way. It was kind of him going "hay brad do this with your hand" in his living room when his parents werent around. Then I made that gesture to a black man and his son in a VW bus driving by the playground. He got out and asked me where my parents were, and this Spanish guy with a mullet, I swear his name was Jose, was like covering for me because my mom never found out.
Junior also liked to peek on his sister via a hole in his bedroom closet after she would finish showering. We used to build toy guns out of legos and I remember mine always looking much cooler than his. He never let me play Metroid. And the nintendo was upstairs in their parents bedroom where they fucked constantly, now that I think back on it.

I remember one day Junior was taunting me again with a rubber spitball toy and I wanted to play with it so he threw it behind the couch. When I went to bend over the coffee table and find it, I felt a sharp pinch on my butt, so I assumed that he pinched my ass or something and it really hurt too. But I told my mom and she had Senior beat the shit out of his ass with a belt. muahaha take that junior.

I also remember one day seeing the paper boy leave the neighbors paper on their doorstep and I was bored one day so I decided I would make sure that it got put into the mail slot on their door. So I opened up the slot and just before I pushed the rolled up paper through I caught this African couple having some pretty hot and steamy sex. I pushed the paper through and ran home. I thought it was pretty funny.

Im concieving of starting my own little series of comic strips based on the friends that i meet in the pit every morning and talk to online and stuff. Its going to be called The Pit Crew (how clever is that). So basically the characters are as follows:



Randy Rowland
Will Blake
Alex Harris
Chris Pfingsten
Lia Baker
Leah Meyer
Brandon Hoenisch

and i will probably add Nikki and Noelle just becuase everyone else knows them too, and theyre not total strangers to me, plus they will be fun to draw. and maybe even Adrienne too, even tho she doesnt go to Skyview anymore. she will be fun to draw too.


ya?

i think it really is true that you cant truly love unless you can love yourself.

in fact ive noticed my general attitude towards people has changed with the attitude i hold toward myself. i hate myself i hate others. i find myself uninteresting i will find ohters uninteresting even if i know they arent.

lethargy is a disease.

current mood: apathetic
current music: Depeche Mode

11:34 pm - How Long Has it Been?
I sure havent updated in a very long while. Only reasons because deadjournal is, well, dead, that is until wednesday i've been told. Its been driving me nuts and i have plenty to put in there but i dont think i'd put any of it out there. One mistake commonly made with these journals is forgetting how to keep some secrets.

Some secrets are unknown because there has been no acceptable way to express them. These journals can cure that with a few lazy fingers and a couple of friends willing to read thru them.

But some secrets you really need to keep to yourself, play with them in your own mind, appreciate them how you want to, without letting them be tainted by others, or letting them tarnish your reputation.

What is all of thise extremely ambiguous nonsense? heheh, read above.

Here we have our 7th-grade patriarchal pleaser, AUGH look at that fat face!, our... person... who i had PE with and is really cool and nice to me (god i have wanted to post that picture of him forever!), Little House on the Prarie horseback rider and guy who now likes anime and fast cars.
I didnt add all of my friends from Alki (Luke), just the ones I wanted everyone to laugh at... i guess. NO, i just wanted everyone to laugh at Lia, because she is the WORST. well, still the worst...

i got a deadjournal because it sounded more for me. so this will be my last post in livejournal. i will only be telling a limited number of people my deadjournal name. even then if i dont, if you truly know me, you should be able to guess my username.

A lot has happened since i last posted i think. School is out and even now i think that summer vacation wont be enough time to do everything that i want. maybe it will be different though since i will be able to drive.

Tonight is a lot like those farmiliar nights i used to have. The ones exactly a year ago last summer vacation, and many throughout the beginning of soph year. Dark room, empty house-all alone, bright computer screen, and my most emotionally engaging music (in this case, Enya) playing while i simply absorb.

I feel like i have many things, many thoughts to offer, even if they arent that important. Only for some reason the people i want to care, dont.

I need to document my thoughts, not with livejournal, but i should have a tape recorder in my pocket maybe...

3:10 pm - Week Sucked
What a hellish week. I think that Ive had more stress on my shoudlers over this one last week than all of the rest of the year! I did 2 4-week final projects the night before they were due and recieved Bs on them. Then we had finals. I had the 2 easiest ones wednesday: French and English. Basically for english if you wrote something that remotely showed you payed attention to the class discussions on at least one day on each of the books, even if you slept the rest of the year, you got 100%. But the french final was laid out in such a way that made it very hard to miss many.
I stressed so much over the algebra final. I guess I really missed OUT when I didnt hear the teacher say we could have a FULL PAGE OF NOTES to reference on the test. I thought for sure I would fail it, and now im sure i got at least a B. But world geography was the hardest one yet. just labeling the countries was difficult around africa and central america. I bet i pulled at least a C+.

But, this last week was shit. The only good thing was that they said "shit" 160 something times on South Park without bleep-age. hm, South Park is my kind of show. The writers, they posess the ability sit back, observe and show the world how stupid they all act sometimes. I wish I had that kind of power.

Devon, bring the ipecac tomorrow. if the girl gets pissed, just tell her you were just about to ask her where the nurse's office is when suddenly... *Bloooaaarrk!*

10:56 am - Yesterday
Friday Kevin came over. This was the first time I'd spent real time with him since he moved. I didnt even get to say goodbye to him because i was grounded for throwing that 'boozer'. It was really cool, just me and him having really balanced conversations about serious stuff as well as silly stuff. It was really refreshing. He's really into techno so i showed him ReBirth. Its some badass mixing software. Two bass mixers and 2 drum machines. The interface is based on some actual analog mixing panel that they analyzed the effects of the hardware and converted into code. Its badass, but the demo only runs 15 minutes at a time.
But, hanging with him was fun. Then went to see Tomb Raider with Luke. Will add more on this topic later:

i just went through hell RE formatting my hard drive and installing all the original software that came on this premanufactured piece of manure. god, games USED to run on this thing without skipping in the video, but they did with 2000 (no surprise) they did with 98 (fairly surprising) and they do now, even with all the software it had before it ever skipped, and still, it skips in the video playback. this is shit, absolute shit. what, did i blow a few hundred transistors or something?

ok realtime 3d is one thing, simple video playback is something completely different, and it skips at that. i just dont get it. i will play the same clip in mpeg or avi format and that shit wont happen.
